Senegal will be represented by two boxers in the 23rd edition of the $8.32 million IBA World Boxing Championships set for the glittering city of Dubai from December 2-13, 2025.
The Secretary-General of the Senegal Boxing Federation Anta Gueye told boxersworld.co.ke they have picked on Africa heavyweight champion Karamba Kebe and welterweight Cheikh Tidiane Diop to represent the West African country with a rich boxing tradition.
“The choice of our two boxers is justified by their continental record and their current technical level,” said the towering Gueye, a former taekwondo black belt player.
“Karamba is a wise choice, being the Africa champion and Cheikh Tidiane Diop has some experience at the World Championships having participated in the Tashkent Games in 2023. He also defeated our Kinshasa 2024 African vice-champion, Mouhamed Abdalah Diallo by knockout in a professional boxing match in October.”
